Cincinnati, Nov. 50. An Imaginary
diwiiKO of tho honse in "hook In the eye."
When the meinhrnne.i coeilng thooyo
become Inflamed or enlarged one of theso
ignomtmtbcu learnedly pronounccu it u
"hook in the eye," mid proceed.! to re
move from tho oyo by cutting ono of tho
most iiKcful nttnehmenta wh'.ch untitro
lina provided.
J-impnn, or "latnjiora," la nnother very
iwpnlar form of illf-eauo with the chnrtn-
tauu. Veterlnnrlnna differ in oplnlonnna '
to whether kucIi ft dlaeano cxintH nt nil or
not. Tho guina of n young hoiwi boiiio
tlmen becomo bo enlarged na to ho level
with or to extend nbovotho teeth. Oe
cuaionnlly two or threo Incisions nro
innilo to relievo them of their congested
condition. Hut In good health in young
horses, while tho teeth nro growing, tho
gums nro naturally full and round and
flolld. Tho young homo is umially
allowed to run nt largo without
grooming. On thb nccount hla nkin
iK'comca dirty, especially whero tho
hair U thick, na ulxnit thu root of
tho tail. Consequently innngo dovelopa
nbout tho (nil. An n result tho young
horso Ij continunlly rubbing lib (nil
ngninst tlio fence or a postor tho r.idca of
thontnllor any other object tlinx comes
in his way. Tho local quack Immedi
ately determines, from tho rnlo of con
trariea iicrhnps, that cince the nymptoma
nptK'nr in the tall tho dinso miiiit bo
located in llio oilier extremity, nnu
dingnoacH it na n enso of "lampera." Tho
mouth ia examined and tho giima nro
found full mid round nnd urild r.j they
ought to Ik. Tho "swelling" of tho gunia
ia pointed out to tlio creiluloun owner,
nnd tho necessity of como heroic treat
ment to meet tho urgent emergency of
the caso ia placed beforo him. Occasion
ally tho "professor" l.i nntisfleil with
merely hacking the guina with a iiluirp
Iohited knlfo into a condition cloudy re
Bcmbling frenh tuiusago meat. But many
times this b not mifllcicnt, nnd, having
procured a red hot iron, ho proceedn to
burn out tho dwelling with a barbarism
unnpproached by tho nntivo American
ravages in tlio torturo of their prifconem,
aiui-cqunicii only in tlio wnolesalo ujipli
cation of the branding irons in n "round
up" on tho ranches of our great western
"cattle kings."
When a homo liocomea lnmo in tho
hind extremities tho learned horseolo
ghtu, unable to discover tho real causo of
tho lameness, natisfy themselves and
their iKitrons bv deckn ing that "lib Bllflo
Ikjiio ii out." Tlio luxation of tho ctiilo
bone jiatella la not of very frequent
occurrence. When it does occur it i.i not
in many cases from accident or violenco
such aa might lo operative in the dislo
cation of tho hip joint or the frocturo of
homo of tho bonca of tho leg. It arises
most frequently from spasm, or cramp,
or pamlysb of some of tho ndjacent
muscles. A veterinary nmgeon received
n message to como quickly to woo a horco
with lib "Btilloout. Ho found (ho horco
doing nil hi lib innver to inform the
owner and the idle onlookers that lib
i.tlllo wna not out. lie hnd perfect con
trol over the limb, but planted lib too on
tho ground nnd raised lib foot in a pecu
liar manner, just ns a hurso will do when
l.iinu in the foot. The curgeon nt onco
examined tho foot nnd found it much
hotter than Its fellows. Tho owner, no
ticing this examination, immediately in
terfered, with tho remark, "Thero b no
troublo In tho foot." But tho mirceou
quickly natislied him cf lib inistnko br
extracting a nail two inches in length
from tho cleft of tho frog.
Another enso is rcixirtctl whero a Iioi-se
had nut away and thrown himself, caus
ing groat lameness. His owner and u
number of volunteers decided thnt ho
waa "sillied," anil a "stlllo uhoo" a choo
raUcd up two or threo Inches from tho
ground was attached to tho opposlto
foot and tho nnimnl compelled to
wulk nbout on thb nt lit co ns
to "throw tho Btlflo in" ngnlu.
Tho korso died in twenty-four hours
from lib horrible suffering. Dissection
bv a veterinary mirceon who hnd Been
tho horso nnd advised that ho lo killed at
onco to end lib miircrlug, nhowed that lib
diaguonb had lccn correct, and that tho
ilium, tlio upper part of tho hip bone,
wan fractured. Another form of "stlilo
shoo" frequently used by blacksmiths
and otablcmen b n high heeled kIioo put
on tho lame foot, throwing it upon tho
too, nnd usually lnflIctlnguntold agony
upon tho poor suffering boast.
It la n popular theory that wounds nnd
sores on nn animal mint bo treated by
tho copious application of astringent oils
and liniments, lieatcd iK'foro application.
"When nt a loss for a diagnosis, tlio
charlatan often decides that tho kidneys
nro tho f.eat of tho trouble, nnd proceeds,
by blistering in tho most vigorous man
ner, to tnko off most of the hair mid n
good portion of tho nkin from faithful
old Dokbln'n back nnd uJdea.
A case b mentioned or tetanus, or
lockjaw, in which oil of turpentino wna
applied freely to both cheokii, causing
such iutenao pain that the nmscular
ftpasnti wero rendered mora covero, caus
ing the death of tho animal on tho fol
lowing day.
A horso suffering from lameness in
tho foreleg waa soveroly blistered on tho
opposlto leg.
A utccr. lying prostrated with nn in
curable lung troublo, waa most cruelly
tortured by u courso of pepper and salt
treatment for "wolf in tlio tail."
A foundered horso was uliatcrcil for
lung trouble.
A colt n fow weeks old waa given a
pint of incited lard, together with Btif
itclont nloca for a grown horu). ltesult,
death in a fow hours.
Ilorsea differing excruciating pain and
desiring to lis down uro compelled to
Lccp uiovmg-auour,.
Tlie3o nro but u fow illustrations of tho
maltreatment of sick-, diseased and in
jured antmab I hat might bo multiplied
liulellnltely. Par worso matters than
those mentioned nro reported in connec
tion with tho parturition of animals
caused bv malformation, malpreseiita
lion, aeclilonts, and in other ways.
To multiply casea ia needless. Such a3
havo been given and many others of liko
character nro of moro or leaa frcquont oc
eurronco In nil Lections and havo been
repeated over and over from tlio earliest
tlmej. It b ovident that ft would bo bet
tor by far and tho act would lw much
mora luunano for tho owner to destroy a
rich nnimnl nt tho very beginning, rather
than to doctor it ignorajitly.
Much lina been done, paitlcularly dur
ing tlio but twenty.flvo years, in behalf
of tho dumb creatures which, bereft of
speech, are incnpablo of pleading for
tlicniKclvcH. But much yet remains to
Ixi done In tho way of ameliorating their
condition and lesculng them from tho
cunio of irrational medication, Every
ono may nld hi riicIi n work to tho ex
tent of Ida ability nnd lib oiqiortunlty.
Theio inuut lion more enlightened pul
llc Hcutinifiit iikiii thb subject. Much
more attention oiiligt to Ih) given in tho
public hchoob to tho teaching of natural
libtory, and particularly to the Impart
ing of npccillu l.nowlcdgo concerning the
habits nud neeibof the different domestic
nnlmnls. Tho evils inflicted upon helpless
iniliiials should bo recited nnd decried
through thu public press, condemned
from tho pulpit, mid described nnd cor
rected from tho platform. The humane
toeletlon, whero they exist, furnish tlio
machinery to nsaist In thb woik of
humane education, nnd, whero these r.o
clotlcH do not exist, they should Ixj or
ganized. Bands of mercy established
among tho children furnish for them n
pleasing pastime nnd nt tho same tlmo
may bo made tho means of nccomplish
ing great gixd.
Yviierovcr renl nclenco b found quack
cry dies out beforo It. Publlo observa

I esults between irrational mid ignorant
methods nnd intelligent professional
practice. Owners of nnlmnb quickly
discover thnt thero Is not only n greater

but of money nlso, in employing tho sci

Anil Frill nt tlio Knee, Too?
Why should not men wear embroid
ered evening clothes? For considerably
moro than a century women havo had
n monopoly of sumptuary cleganco and
it b tlmo that tho longing for lino rai
ment which resides in tho bosom of
every man (If lio would only admit it)
should bo gratiflcd. It b proposed to
differentiate tho gentleman wlio goes
out in tho 'evening to nmuso himself, or
because ho cannot help it. from tho gen
tleman who waits upon him, by placing
a strip of embroidery upon each leg of
lib continuations, Wo liopo it will bo
dono, and that tho movement in favor of
picturcsmio malo nttiro will not btop
thore. l,ct ua havo silken waistcoats
and cerulean velvet pumps nnd Bhoes of
red morocco adorucil with rosettes and
something in tlio naturo of n doublet
pinked and slashed with divers lines.
This fashion would bo a heavy blow to
tho tradesmen who let out dress suits ou
hlro by tho evening or by tho wook.
